Contractors for the Army Corps of Engineers - Alaska District are preparing the project office site for the 16/34 runway extension project on Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson on Nov. 9, 2022. The team will eventually move 12 million cubic yards of soil, which is equal to about 800,000 15 cubic yard dump truck loads. If lined up, those trucks would cover the distance from JBER to San Antonio, Texas. On the project, the team will also be using trucks that hold more than 70 cubic yards of earth at a time.
